9. As a member of Toastmasters International
That was a rough inspirational speech, which is what it was. He is just not a strong speaker, he was not speaking to his audience, both in the room and through the TV cameras. His speechwriter wrote a rambling speech with no clear purpose. The audience reaction seems really really forced. He presented it the best way he could given his speaking style and lack of quality speaking material.

14. F, seriously. He accomplished absolutely nothing tonight.
No undecided will be swayed by what he said tonight.

16. Content: B ; Delivery: D

Unless they took notes, people aren't going to remember what he said -- aside from "noun, verb & POW." Utterly soulless, droning delivery.

17. Big fat boring C. Hit all required bullet points in a mechanical performance.
He did not bash Obama at length. He made generic Republican talking points.
